Krim Eleven people have died as a result of a mass shooting at a school in Örebro, Sweden. Here is what we know so far. At 12.33 PM on Tuesday, February 4, 2025, Swedish police received emergency calls from a school campus called Risbergska in Örebro. Multiple people had been shot in an adult education-oriented school.

Investigators had not uncovered a definitive motive behind the bloodshed by Thursday. Police said there were no warnings beforehand, and they believe the perpetrator acted alone. Authorities said there were no suspected connections to terrorism at this point.

The leaders of the Syrian Orthodox Church in Örebro, southern Sweden, honored on Friday the two victims of Tuesday's shooting at an adult education school, as authorities have yet to officially identify them.
